Will Ryan`s book, Inspirational Teachers, Inspirational Learners, does not just tell you how education and educationalists have to change their thinking. It explores real and concrete areas for change, that need to be seriously looked at for twenty-first century teaching and learning.
Following significant and very welcome changes to the Scottish education system from 5-14 to Curriculum for Excellence, this book is a real gold mine of ideas and examples for those educators who have found it challenging to change their ways of thinking and teaching. For those following the English system, currently in the process of change, this book gives a real heads-up, with tangible examples of exemplary practice that coax real ideas, some tried and considered, to move primary school education firmly forwards. Furthermore, the checklists planted carefully throughout the book will help to guide any teacher, department or school towards inspirational learning.
Read this book to gain a real sense of can-do, of wanting, perhaps needing to become an inspirational teacher, to encourage inspirational learners to be the very best they can be.
